Best Counters to Moon Knight
How to Counter Moon Knight
Moon Knight has 275 health and needs enemies close together for his bounces, so spread out instead of standing in a pack, and break his 125-health Ankh before he fires into it. Divers such as Magik and Daredevil can reach him on high ground once Moonlight Hook is on its 12-second cooldown. When Hand of Khonshu opens over you, leave the 8 m area at once rather than fighting inside it, since 18 talons keep falling for 4.5 seconds.
